Benchmark...Spring has sprung

The Garden Club took its Spring Fling in Marshall again...we had an exquisite luncheon at "Southern Exposure Herb Farm" then learned to add a nice patina to a garden bench...Our hard work paid off big time...they all look great, and will add lots of charm to our gardens this season



Ok you'll notice someone else took this picture...lol

In His Presence

How lovely is Thy Dwelling place

How lovely is Thy dwelling place,
O Lord of hosts to me!
The tabernacles of Thy grace
How pleasant, Lord, they be!

My thirsty soul longs ardently,
Yes, faints Thy courts to see;
My very heart and flesh cry out,
O living God, for Thee.

Behold the sparrow findeth out
A house wherein to rest;
The swallow also, for herself,
Provided hath a nest.

Ee’n Thine own altars, where she safe
Her young ones forth may bring,
O Thou, almighty Lord of hosts,
Who art my God and King.

Blest are they in Thy house that dwell,
They ever give Thee praise,
Blest is the man whose strength Thou art,
In whose heart are Thy ways.

GO IRISH!

God then made man.
The Italian for their beauty.
The French for fine food.
The Swedes for intelligence.
The Jew for religion.
And on and on until he looked at what
he had created and said,
"This is all very fine but no one is having fun.
I guess I'll have to make me an Irishman."

God's Love Allows Us to...

amen.
